Liquid Flow Switches What they do Detect liquid flow in a pipe and trigger an electrical switch to control pumps, valves, or alarms. They enable automatic responses to actual flow conditions. Why you need them Protect pumps from damage due to dry running by stopping or starting based on real flow. Improve process safety and reliability through automatic, flowbased control. Support energy efficiency by driving equipment only when there is sufficient flow. Key benefits Reliable flowbased control that integrates with existing equipment and control systems. Flexible compatibility with standard control circuits and common pump or valve arrangements. Available in multiple configurations to fit different pipe sizes and installation requirements. Robust design for use in typical liquid service environments. Important attributes Function: flow sensing with an electrical switching output. Compatibility: suitable for incorporation into pumps, valves, alarms, and controllers; check model ratings for pressure, temperature, and liquid compatibility. Size: offered in a range of sizes to suit common piping and installation constraints. Material: built for liquid exposure; housing and seals chosen for durability and corrosion resistance; material options vary by model. Performance: responsive to changes in flow with repeatable switching and dependable operation over time. Typical use scenarios Water treatment or irrigation systems: automatically start a pump when flow is detected and stop it if flow falls below the threshold. Industrial process line: trigger downstream equipment (valves, mixers, or sensors) based on measured liquid flow. Heating or cooling loops: ensure minimum flow before enabling pumps or chillers to protect system integrity. Pushbutton Switches What they do Provide a direct human input to start, stop, reset, or acknowledge equipment actions from a control panel or machine interface. Why you need them Simple and intuitive control for operators. Immediate manual intervention for startup, shutdown, or fault handling. Flexible control input that complements automated systems with a tactile interface. Key benefits Clear and reliable operator control that reduces the chance of misoperation. Broad compatibility with standard control circuits and panel configurations. Compact and versatile mounting options for various panel layouts. Durable construction designed to withstand regular operation in industrial settings. Important attributes Function: available in multiple actuation types and configurations to suit control needs; options commonly include momentary and latching variants, depending on model. Compatibility: designed to integrate with standard voltages and wiring schemes used in control panels and automation systems. Size: compact form factors suitable for dense control panels; actuator and mounting options may vary by model. Material: rugged housings and contact assemblies chosen for reliability; material choices include metal or plastic variants depending on the model. Performance: consistent actuation feel and stable electrical connections; engineered for long service life in typical industrial environments. Typical use scenarios Start or stop control for a pump or conveyor on a production line. Reset or acknowledge button for an alarm or fault indicator in a control panel. Manual override in maintenance or testing scenarios to ensure safe or controlled operation.
